Hansel and Gretel workshop

Wow, what an amazing morning we have had today! We were so lucky to have Kerry and Tash come in from CAST Theatre, to teach us the story of Hansel and Gretel, through drama. The children enjoyed getting into the roles of the different characters and exploring props. Once we had finished we went back to the create doughnuts, for the gingerbread house flooring, which we will see in CAST theatre when we go to visit. We are so excited to go and work with Kerry and Tash again at CAST theatre in a couple of weeks, and watch the performance of Hansel and Gretel.
Mrs Williams was so proud of how well everyone participated in this workshop, and the great respect and integrity all children showed towards our visitors. Well done nursery!

We are writers!

After spending the last few weeks finding out why the Romans lived in what is now known as Doncaster, we are now able to write non-chronological reports about our learning…

We are courageous!

Well done to everyone who stood in front of the class and spoke about the information they had collated about the Romans and how they founded Doncaster – then known as Danum. It takes a lot of courage to speak to a large group of children, so you really do need to be proud of yourself if you have been able to be brave enough to do this!

Keep being courageous 4H!

5S are dramatic!

As a hook into our writing about the Amazon Rainforest, children today imagined, then enacted, their senses and emotions as they took a hike through the dense jungle.

Many children were nervous, apprehensive and scared, while others showed excitement for their adventure. It was great to hear you be so descriptive about your range of feelings, I can’t wait to read about them in your diary entries!

Level Up!

A big well done to these children who levelled up on Reading Plus this week – keep practicing – I look forward to giving you another certificate soon!

We are smashing SPaG

Yet more examples of beautiful work- anchor charts to support SPaG knowledge. My class have smashed their knowledge on coordinating conjunctions. I can not wait to fill my classroom with fantastic SPaG anchor charts created by my amazing Year 6 crew!

Ask your children at home to name coordinating and subordinating conjunctions!

Time to Read Crew

In our snuggle and story crew today, we were joined by year 6. Our F2 children chose a book and a buddy, with which the Y6 children then read to the F2 children. It was a lovely crew session! #LovePlover
